In Memoriam: James "Jim" Medford

James “Jim” Medford passed away Friday, February 10, 2017 in Menifee, California. Jim was born in Ardmore, Oklahoma, on January 26, 1925.

Jim married Anna Jo Bond on September 1, 1945. They were married for 64 years until Jo's passing in 2009. They had three children: Linda Admorde and James and Richard Medford; four grandchildren: Michael Phillips, Heather Pittard and Matthew and Ryan Medford; and four great grandchildren: Ethan and Rylan Phillips and Mackenzie and Savanna Pittard.
